Raah – Multilingual Career Guidance & Learning App

Overview

Raah is a multilingual career guidance and learning mobile application designed for college and university students across Pakistan. The application supports students from diverse academic backgrounds who are uncertain about their future professional paths and need clarity in choosing the right career, degree, or university.

Raah helps students make informed decisions by providing personalized guidance, expert-verified opportunities, and learning resources tailored to their interests, preferences, and academic goals.


Purpose

Many students struggle with critical questions such as:

  • Which career path should I choose?
  • Which university or degree is right for me?
  • What internships, scholarships, or certifications should I pursue?

Raah addresses these challenges by offering structured, data-driven, and expert-guided recommendations, enabling students to confidently plan their future.


How the Application Works

The application is built using React Native with Expo.

  1. Students sign up and provide:

    • Personal preferences
    • Academic interests
    • Career goals
  2. Based on this information, Raah uses a hybrid content-based recommender system to guide users through two main sections:

Learn

  • Expert-recommended certifications
  • Skill-based learning paths
  • Real-world practical projects
  • Insights from industry professionals

Career

  • Verified internships and job opportunities
  • University selection guidance
  • Scholarships and funding opportunities
  • Expert insights on future career trends

All recommendations are expert-verified, credible, and aligned with the student’s profile.
